Good Afternoon Cal, I think the changes for Scourge will hopefully help bring some diversity to the game for WvW due to it being oppressive in that particular game mode. Could you please look into other classes for Support? You have buffed some classes, notably Warrior's support line but left a niche class such as Chronomancer - Support Wells in the dust. Chronomancer Support wells are the support skills that nobody wants to use because they give out mediocre boons and require targets to stay stationary to benefit from them. This is made even worse when you have classes that give out similar boons and more while running around (such as Firebrand Tomes). If you want Chronomancer to be more damage orientated then have the wells be more for damage, as it stands now they are pretty useless in almost every game mode. PLEASE ADJUST THE SUPPORT WELLS. Thank you.

Hello ArenaNet Balance Team, You have again ignored the fact that Chronomancer Support Wells are a terrible design in almost every game mode. While you are tweaking Firebrand you NEED to buff other support orientated classes. You are leaving them too far behind. That doesn't help us because, unless I missed it, we still cannot self-shatter on chronomancer. Also, Firebrand can give out quickness every time it gives out Aegis.... You need to rework chronomancer wells, as previously mentioned:

Hello, Can you please look into adjusting Chronomancer Support wells? You made support wells as that classes niche that no one wants to stand in for mediocre boons that anyone else can give out while mobile but these require you to be stationary. Please have them pulse around you as you move similar to the Function Gyros as they are now a "well". This would help diversify some of the support monopoly that firebrand has especially if you give some of them stability / barrier / resistance. Literally a terrible choice having a stationary support well with those kinds of boons that no one will stand in any almost any game mode.

These changes are a great start. The meta has been a bit toxic because of lack of meaningful reveal skills. Bringing scrapper reveal back is a nice change. Scourge and Firebrand currently dominate the meta and lowering the scourge damage is also a nice change, I still think it needs more nerfs in WvW for damage with it it being even more support orientated and less damage. Firebrand, if it wasn't the be all end all support profession we could see some more diversity. Limiting some of its boons to other classes and not firebrand could be a starting place. For Chronomancer, I really think you should rework support wells. They should pulse AOE around you like the new Scrapper gyros and be more support themed such as giving our pulsing barrier (right now scourge gives out the best barriers). Really, Support Chrono wells need looked at, they are extremely underwhelming.
